Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to investigate the role of Brd4 in UV-regulated genome-wide gene expression. Methods: RNA samples from control and Brd4-depleted cells at 0, 0.5 and 2 hr after UV treatment were analyzed using RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq). Results: Signals higher or lower than >1-fold by log2 were regarded as significant and analyzed further. And only either unregulated or downregulated genes in Brd4-depleted cells compared with control cells at the same time point (0, 0.5 or 2 hr) after UV treatment were analyzed. Indeed, a transcriptome analysis indicated that UV-upregulated genes are positively affected by the Brd4 level.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells comparing normoxic MSCs cells with hypoxic MSCs cells. Hypoxia may inhibit senescence of MSCs during expansion. Goal was to determine the effects of hypoxia on global MSCs gene expression.
